RAvENNA, o., Dec. 2-Thursday,
December 1st, being the day set for the
trial of James Robinson the Jury report
ed for duty at 1'30. The prisoner,
Jimmy" Robinson, as he is familiarly
known, came into the court room smil-
ing and occupied the same seat that had

wHAr Will rHEY pop
Congressman of Both Parties Divided on
the Question of Revenue Reduction.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l. - The Post
prints a series of interviews with near
ly hundred members of Congress up
on the questions which are to be pre-
sented to that body for its action dur
ing the coming session, and particular
ly those relating to the tariff reduction
of a surplus revenue and a postal tele-
graph. The Post will summarize the
interviews as follows:
Speaker Carlisle states the Demo
cratic position with great clearness.
His views are especially important in
view of the great responsibility which
will be placed upon his shoulders with
the organization of the House, He be-
lieves in immediate reduction of the
surplus revenue now pouring into the
Treasury. He believes in reducing the
taxes which produce these revenues at
least seventy million dollars annually.
His Democratic followers, who voted
with Mr. Morrison in the last Congress,
generally take the same position. OF
the few Democrats who have sided
with Mr.. Randall. who are now in the
city, Mr.. McAdoo, Mr. Stahlnecker,
Mr.. wilkins, Mr.. Merriman, and MIR.
LaWler are quoted as experiencing
somewhat a change of heart. The SEN
timent of the Northwestern Congress
men is that the free trade sentiment is
growing in that section. Democratic
representatives from Minnesota and
Michigan have the highest confidence
that their two States can be made Dem
ocratic upon the revenue reform issue.
Mr.. Lyman, of Ohio, q Republican,
although he acknowledges tnal ne is a
protectiOniSt. comes out for reduction
of the revenue. Many other Republi
cans like MI. Lyman agree That some
thing must be done with the tariff
though few, like MessrS. Sawyer and
Bacon, Of New York, and Jackson, of
Pennsylvania, think that nothing W Il
be done at this session.
Many ways OF reducing the surplus
are suggested. Quite number OF Con
gressmen, including Representative
Catchings, of Mississippi, >hively, OF
Indiana, Iaulbee and Caluth, Of Ken
lucky, and Abbott, of Texas, favor
compromise, such as taking the tax off
tobacco and prefer reducing the tax on
fruit brandies. The proposition to take
the tax off whisky hardly finds ID sup
porter. The question of putting sugar
ON the free lists finds some advocates.
out mainly among Republicans. The
Louisiana Congressman, to whom this
is very vital question, say that their
state Is dlWdeu, the northern portion
being in favor Of free sugar, and the
Gulf section opposed to it. The Demo
cratic sentiment is largely III 'dVor OF
increasing the free list, adding to it
salt, lumber and the necessaries of life,

rHE KNIeHTs OF LABOR.
An Attempt Being Made to Organize
Another Order at Chicago.


CHICAGO, Dec. Especial IA
morning paper says: The chief movers
in the attemptto organize another order
of the knights of Labor have issued a
circular which is addressed to the
local assemblies of the Knights OF
Labor in Cook county, requesting the
local assemblies to cooperate in re-
organizing the order of the
Knights of Labor on an hon
est and substantial plan. The
plan of action is that each
assembly shall refuse to pay further
tribute to the general assembly unless
an itemized account of receipts and eX-
penditures of the general assembly be
presented to local assemblies. The
circular is sent from the headquarters
of the provisional committee of which
Charles F. Smith is Secretary. In the
preamble the members of the commit
tee say that they wish to sever their con-
n3ction with the order because they are
indignant at the usurpation of power
the gross violations of the laws of our
order, by those high in authority; dis
gusted with those whose loyalty to the
present ring has been gained by the
pickings they received as a reward for
service; incensed at the fawning syco-
phants who crawl ON their hands and
knees in slavish submission to
the most corrupt, the most hypo-
critical, the most autocratic and tyran-
ical clique that ever controlled
any labor organization Following
this all sorts of charges are made
against the general office and assembly
1t is claimed that the order is run by a
ring, the members of which care moth
ing for the working men. The ring or
conspiracy, as the circular says, is band
ed together for the purpose of holding
the salaried positions in and under the
General Assembly.

Three Boys Found Guilty and Hanged by
Two Companions.
JAMESTOWN, N. Y, Dec. 1.--Five
boys who arrived unusually early at
the Sheakley school, near Petrolia, But
Ter county, one day recently, occupied
their spare time by having an anarch-
ist trial. The three smaller and younger
boys were the anarchists, and the two
older ones the judge and eXecutioner.
The three were found guilty and SEN
fenced to be hung. Ropes were pro-
cured and attached to the ceiling. A
long board was placed on chairs, the
boys stepped onto it, the ropes were
adjusted around their necks, and, at a
signal from the Judge, the sheriff jerked
away the chair and down the little fel-
lows came in a manner which dispelled
their mirth and produced immediate
insensibility. The judge and sheriff
were so frightened by the distorted
appearance of the boys faces that they
cut them down as quickly as possible.
Two of them recovered at once, but the
youngest and smallest had his neck so
badly lacerated by the rope that it was
some time before he regained conscious
ness.
